BIC Wavelengths

 
Here is a new pen we have started to collect down here in the supply room, the BIC Wavelength and BIC Round Stic. The BIC Round Stic can be seen today and is available in most stores where as the BIC Wavelength came out in April of 1992 and were discontinued at the end of 1998. All but a few of the pens in the picture are from the early 90s. I am showing the Monsters set because most of these pens came in sets of six. On the back of one of the cards dated 1993 there are 14 different sets with six pens in each set. Most of the ones in the picture are 1995 sets. Starting at the top left are 11 basic pens. Next is the UFO set (4), then the Monster set (3). Followed by the Color Beams (4) and Color Shifts (3). Next are the FLATS (5, Flat Cats) and Sports Balls (5). Last are 3 Snack Zones (Candy) and the hard to find 4 KISS pens. These pens come in sets of 6 but some will be duplicates and are not shown. The 1993 card had the following sets listed. Shimmers, Glow Stics, Art Attacks, Fish Stics, FLATS ( Which I have), Tribals, Body Heat 1, Body Heat 2, Clear Clics, Wahoo's, Spaz, Color Bursts, Color Combos, Hot Lites. As you can see this is only 1993 and 1995. I am sure there are plenty more out there covering the 8 years or so they were made plus the ones from overseas. These BIC Wavelengths have become hot collector items so keep looking for these sets to add to your collection.Posted by Picasa

  1. I have some of those, originals from around the house that I managed to salvage in the basement/garage. One is the soccer pen that you posted, and another is a pink pen with a white/pink lightning pattern on the barrel. I also have a blue one with a translucent spiral-like barrel.

  2. Hi, I'm looking for the black pen that says 'Bic Round Stic med/moy,' the fifth from the top left. Where can I get it?

  3. I believe I got the black one from a friend in France. I will check and see.

  4. Also you should contact any of the overseas sellers on ebay. Many of them may look for the pen in their area.

  5. Please do check, I really want this pen and I've been searching for the past several hours online. Can you believe this is the only picture I've managed to find with this pen?
    I'll contact a seller, but please let me know if you find out who you got it from. I'll gladly buy it off them if they can get me some.
